HERITAGE POEM


From my mother, bravery,
Brightness through darkness struggles
All thinking about optimistic choices
Brilliance through all the way
That will never give up.

From my father, love 
For me and my brothers
In a silent way
Who is always there 
Support and make decisions
In a right way.

Even if someone is wrong
Us, my family, we
Always bond together
To give each other
A better opportunity
To strive forward
Towards our goals.

For the wishes
We’ve made
Together.
So thankful,
We always standby
And understand each other
That will be never separate us apart.
